Contains {@link info.monitorenter.gui.chart.ITrace2D} implementations 
of jchart2d that apply computations on the input/output datapoints before 
they provide them to the chart.
<p>
One example is a trace that accumulates the arithmetic mean of the n last input 
datapoints into one internal datapoint. 
<p>
Please note that these traces can be used in two modes: 
<ol>
 <li>
 Stand alone: <br/>
 Add the <code>ITrace2D</code> implementation to a chart and add 
 data points to it as normal.
 </li> 
 <li>
 Computing trace: <br/>
  Add the <code>ITrace2D</code> implementation as a computing trace to 
  an existing trace via 
  <code>{@link info.monitorenter.gui.chart.ITrace2D#addComputingTrace(info.monitorenter.gui.chart.ITrace2D)}</code> 
  and only add data points to the original trace. Add the computing 
  trace to the same chart and updates of the original trace will 
  be reflected on the computing trace as well. 
 </li>
</ol>
